    Tis an ancient observance, going back to pagan times, this All Hollow's Eve. The nights grow longer and the shadows deeper. The wind is blowing the leaves off of the trees and the church's graveyard grows ominously scarier. Will the dead awaken? Will the spirits fly through the inky darkness to visit us at midnight?

    Honestly, I don't know, but I do have a couple of spooky ancients to contribute.


    D-Camera Olbia, 2 AE gorgoneions, c 400-350 BC, 20.8 and 18.2 grams, 11-28 -20.jpg

    So, let's gather around the hearth and enjoy the fire's autumnal glow, and while we eat camel apples and bags full of candy, let's also share our spookiest, weirdest and scariest coins!
